Lyrics

[Verse 1]
We are going nowhere fast
Are we made of glass?
No one knows
No one knows
[Verse 2]
Played out at the highest levels
Sunken leather sofas
Stop all human interaction
Keep them in their corners
[Verse 3]
We can start and turn off everything
It's only then you'll see your life begin
[Verse 4]
Save me, oh, come on and save me
From this world
Tell me, 'cause I need to know
I'm not alone
[Verse 5]
We are taught to watch the puppets
Not the hands controlling
Do you think if we pull out the rug
The world would stop revolving?
[Verse 6]
We can start and turn off everything
It's only then you'll see your life begin
[Verse 7]
Save me, oh, come on and save me
From this world
Save me, oh, come on and save me
From this world
[Verse 8]
Tell me, 'cause I need to know
I'm not alone
[Verse 9]
We are going nowhere fast
Are we made of glass?
No one knows
No one knows
No one knows
[Verse 10]
A wise man told me that we are born with wings
But never taught to fly
Doesn't that make you wonder why?
Is it to prevent us from falling out of the sky?
Or is it to stop us from soaring too high?
So let me ask you this
[Verse 11]
Are you runnin' round in a circle going nowhere fast?
'Cause when you look at the man in the mirror
Is he made of nothing but glass?
Are you never aware that mountains don't move themselves?
Tectonic plates take something to make them shift
That all it took was a staff to part the Red Sea
All it took was a bus to Montgomery
[Verse 12]
A single woman who refused to give up her seat
We fought an entire army with a bouquet of flowers back in the '70's
But now you're taught to remain a hamster in a wheel
Until you run out of energy
Afraid that if you strive for an ideal you'll end up like a Kennedy
It's like being on a treadmill everyday but never losing any weight
'Cause to see success the food for 'fore you digests has to change
We're stressed and high, get depressed and die
But still afraid to question why
[Verse 13]
When the biggest criminals I ever met wore a suit and tie
When did we stop believing?
When did we stop marching?
When did we stop chanting?
